It's so dumb that they aren't stretching him out at all.

BMac made a good point on twitter how this is all non-sensical that he is being capped at 3 innings each outing this year when he was throwing 100+ pitches every week a year ago.

Not saying he should throw 100 in a AAA game, but at least let him get up to 75 to start stretching him out so he can be called up to start in Pittsburgh.

Not uncommon to see 100 MPH pitches in todays game, but there is just something different in Skenes delivery, motion, movement of ball, etc. etc.

Good for you young man. Keep it up!

Hopefully he doesn’t end up like Spencer Strider

They’re gonna call him up soon but it’ll probably be another 2-3 weeks if they’re not gonna use him in the pen. They’ve said they’re taking it reeeeeaaally slow with him.

Sucks he’s going to be playing against my Cubs. But man I’ll be rooting for him regardless!
